Trick-or-treating in Indiana

We were planning on trick-or-treating Friday night with neighbor kids but events beyond my control (my grandfather passed away, and his funeral was on Saturday) dictated that we be in Decatur, Indiana, October 31, Halloween night.

I figured that we would just take the kids trick-or-treating in Decatur, and the kids would be happy. After we arrived in Indiana, we found out that Decatur did their trick-or-treating the night before! Craziness! Luckily, Indiana is one of those places where there are lots of small towns in a small area. We were sent to Berne, Indiana to go trick-or-treating. No luck there either, they trick-or-treated the night before. So one last try in Ossion, Indiana. We found a nice neighborhood and went to five houses. This was enough for Colin and Nathan, and everyone was happy.

In Berne, we went to McDonald's for dinner and saw some Amish having dinner there too. I find them very interesting people, and the kids loved the horse and buggies that they ride in. Idea for next year's International Day!

Colin was obviously a ghost. Nathan was supposed to be a ghost too, but at the last minute decided he wasn't going to wear a sheet. So Nathan wore the fire hat that we got at Firehouse Subs (dinner on the way to Indiana!). Amazing how things work out sometimes.
